Quintana (4-0) earned the win against the Cardinals on Sunday, allowing one run on five hits and three walks with six strikeouts over five innings.
Quintana cruised through four frames before allowing a run in the fifth and departing with a 7-1 lead. He generated only eight swinging strikes on 98 pitches but managed to minimize hard contact. The veteran southpaw has now yielded just three total earned runs across four consecutive victories to open the campaign. He owns a 1.14 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 15:8 K:BB across 23.2 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Cubs next weekend.

Brewers' Christian Yelich: Swipes sixth base in win
Rotowire
Yelich went 2-for-4 with a walk, two RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Cardinals.
Yelich contributed early and often Sunday, scoring a run in the first inning, swiping a bag in the third and driving in two runs in the fourth. The 33-year-old has been on fire over his past 10 games, tallying five multi-hit efforts with three extra-base hits, 12 RBI, six runs scored and three steals. On the season, he's slashing .238/.345/.416 with five homers, 23 RBI, 14 runs scored and six steals across 119 plate appearances.
Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Cracks homer, four hits in loss
Rotowire
Chourio went 4-for-5 with a homer, a double and three RBI in Saturday's 6-5 loss at St. Louis.
The 21-year-old star notched his second career four-hit game with this performance, with the first coming last August, also at St. Louis. The highlight of Chourio's day came in the ninth inning, when he launched a 395-foot, two-run homer off closer Ryan Helsley to tie the game at 5-5. Through 122 plate appearances, Chourio sports a .280/.295/.534 slash line with six homers, two steals, 23 RBI and 21 runs scored.

Brewers' Quinn Priester: Struggles in no-decision
Rotowire
Priester did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Cardinals, allowing five runs on eight hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out two.
The Milwaukee right-hander was in line for the loss before Jackson Chourio bailed him out with a game-tying homer in the ninth. Priester allowed a season-worst eight base knocks as the St. Louis lineup peppered him with runs in the second, third and fourth innings. After looking sharp with a 0.90 ERA in 10 innings over his first two starts, Priester has regressed in his last two outings, allowing seven runs across nine innings. The 24-year-old currently lines up to face the high-powered Cubs offense at home next weekend.

Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Hits five innings in rehab start
Rotowire
Woodruff (shoulder) tossed five scoreless innings Thursday in his latest rehab start at Triple-A Nashville, striking out five batters while allowing two hits and no walks.
After making his first rehab start at Triple-A on April 12, Woodruff moved to High-A Wisconsin for his second outing April 18 before linking back up with Nashville this week. Though the 32-year-old threw 61 pitches Thursday -- seven fewer than his previous start with Wisconsin -- he was highly efficient, facing just two batters over the minimum. After missing the entire 2024 season while recovering from September 2023 capsule surgery on his right shoulder, Woodruff's fastball velocity has been hovering a tick or two below pre-surgery levels during his rehab assignment, but Thursday represented a major step forward in terms of regaining command. The right-hander is likely to make at least one more start in the minors before potentially returning from the 15-day injured list to make his 2025 debut with the Brewers in early May.

Brewers' Blake Perkins: Shifts to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Brewers transferred Perkins (shin) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Perkins has been on the injured list all season after suffering a lower-leg fracture early in spring training, and moving to the 60-day IL will officially keep him out until at least May 26. He'll surrender his roster spot to Daz Cameron, who was selected to the active roster Saturday to replace the injured Garrett Mitchell (oblique).

Brewers' Daz Cameron: Officially promoted
Rotowire
The Brewers selected Cameron's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.
Milwaukee will call upon Cameron to provide the team with some outfield depth while Garrett Mitchell (oblique) spends time on the injured list. Cameron, 28, boasts a 1.274 OPS in Triple-A since being acquired by the Brewers on April 7, which could be enough to buy him an occasional start with the big club. Blake Perkins (shin) was transferred to the 60-day IL to clear space on the 40-man roster.

Brewers' Garrett Mitchell: Diagnosed with oblique strain
Rotowire
The Brewers placed Mitchell on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a left oblique strain.
Mitchell was taken out of Friday's game early due to oblique tightness, and an MRI confirmed a strain Saturday. He'll now spend at least the next 10 days on the injured list, opening a roster spot for Daz Cameron to join Milwaukee's outfield group and potentially start a few games until Mitchell returns.
Patrick (1-2) took the loss against the Cardinals on Friday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out two in 4.1 innings.
Patrick retired nine of the first 11 batters he faced, but his shutout efforts ended in the fourth inning on a Nolan Gorman sacrifice fly, and Patrick was tagged for another run after being lifted in the fifth. Patrick hasn't given up more than two earned runs in any of his five starts this season and has a 2.45 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 22:11 K:BB across 25.2 innings. Patrick is tentatively slated to start against the White Sox next week, though it's unclear whether he will get another turn in the Brewers' rotation after Tobias Myers was activated from the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Brewers' Daz Cameron: Bound for Milwaukee
Rotowire
The Brewers are expected to select Cameron's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.
Cameron has been hot in the minors since being traded from Baltimore on April 7, slashing .372/.417/.837 with five homers, 16 RBI, nine runs scored and three steals across 10 games with the Sounds. He'll help give the Brewers some depth in the outfield, though he could get opportunities to start if Garrett Mitchell (oblique) ends up on the injured list.
Mitchell was removed early from Friday's game against the Cardinals due to left oblique tightness, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Mitchell grounded into a fielder's choice during his lone at-bat in the second inning and was replaced in the field in the fourth. The severity of his injury remains unclear, but Isaac Collins could be in line for some outfield reps if Mitchell ends up needing to miss time.
Brewers' Tobias Myers: Goes four innings in 2025 debut
Rotowire
Myers didn't factor into the decision in Thursday's 6-5 loss to the Giants. He allowed two runs on four hits and four walks while striking out two across four innings.
Thursday was Myers' 2025 debut after he began the season on the 15-day injured list due to a left oblique strain. The 26-year-old looked rusty at times with just two punchouts and eight baserunners in four innings of work, but he worked up to 82 pitches (47 strikes) should be clear of any workload restrictions before long. Myers is lined up to take on the White Sox on the road next week.
Thomas received an anti-inflammatory injection April 16 in an effort to calm irritation in his left elbow, MLB.com reports.
The Brewers placed Thomas on the 15-day injured list April 8 with what the team termed as left elbow arthritis. Thomas has yet to resume throwing while he waits for the injection to take full effect, and the southpaw could be in store for a slow ramp-up process before being activated from the 15-day injured list. Milwaukee thought enough of Thomas to select him in the Rule 5 Draft this past winter, but the 26-year-old is viewed as more of a developmental project rather than an impact contributor out of the big-league bullpen. He turned in a 20.25 ERA and 2.63 WHIP in 5.1 innings for Milwaukee before landing on the IL.
